Re: 4.2 Project: "@file" support

I wasn't specifying DJGPP's exact code, mostly these features:

OK.

1. Recursion. @file inside another @file causes further expansion.

Yes, my implementation happened to already do that.

(MSVC does not do this. Presumably this explains the behavior under 3 below.)

2. Support for "find -print0" which is more robust than
   whitespace-delimited arguments.

OK.

3. Allow non-file "@string" left as-is (not fatal).

OK.

(MSVC does not do this either.)

I'm not particularly concerned about differing from MSVC on these points; I'm just noting them for posterity.
